Dear Curtis,

I would like to express my gratitude for the way you have taken care of this case. Thank you for your advice and encouragement during a time when I was completely bewildered by what needed to be done and how very much needed doing.

You and your staff made a very difficult time much easier for me and I appreciate your work on my behalf.

Dear Mr. Beckcom:

I never got a chance to say thank you for the wonderful job you did on my daughter's case. My daughter will be graduating in June from High School with cum laude status. She will be attending college at U.T. Austin and majoring in Communications. Thanks to your efforts her college education has been taken care of. Thank you again from both of us.

I know that my attorney is good because he won my case and I would recommend him to others.
Words cannot express the thanks and gratefulness that we have for Vuk and his company. His tireless efforts and aggressive style meant the world to us and he changed our lives forever. I will always be loyal and grateful to V&B for taking on my case and being committed from the beginning until the end. I highly recommend these guys with 100% assuredness that they will work hard for you and help you receive what you deserve.

I would like to thank Brian Beckcom and his staff for their professionalism and their support. . . I knew when I met Brian that he was more than qualified to handle my father's wrongful death case . . .if I needed his help again I wouldn't hesitate to call.

Just when we thought we would never find someone who would listen to our story, V&B opened their doors to us. For one month, I spoke to 25 lawyers and the answer I received was "your case is a lost case, no one will ever represent you."

I sat on one of your juries early this year. I observed your eloquence and complete passion....you seem to be a man of utmost qualifications.

Vuk, it has been such a wonderful experience working with you and your staff. Thank you so much for all the hard work that you did to help my family and I survive through the most difficult time of our lives.

Phuong N.
Houston, Texas
I was injured in an auto accident in Houston, and was referred to Vuk by another attorney. I couldn't work as a result of the accident and desperately needed back and knee surgery.. . . Vuk was able to get me a generous settlement within about a year of taking my case.

Steven R.
Deer Park, Texas
After my two-year old son was killed by an 18-wheeler driver and me and my daughter were badly injured, we hired Brian and Vuk to represent us on the recommendation of another lawyer.

This was the hardest time in our lives and it was great knowing we had you there to represent us.

New Rules for Texas Truck Drivers

Accidents involving tractor trailers are often very serious and can be deadly. Last year 441 people were killed in fatal Texas tractor trailer accidents. The majority of those killed were other vehicle occupants – not occupants of the tractor trailer.

September first saw a host of new driving laws enacted, many intended to make roads safer for all road users. Many of these new laws will affect Texas truck drivers. However, it remains to be seen if these laws will save lives and prevent serious injury to non-truck motorists caught in a large truck crash.

Change in responsibility. Motor vehicle titling, vehicle registration and trucking oversight will now be the responsibility of the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles (these things used to be the responsibility of the Texas Department of Transportation). The Texas DMV likely won’t be fully functional in its new role until November 1^st.

No more idling. Texas has anti-idling laws on the books, however there was always an exemption for “government mandated rest periods”. This allowed truckers to remain in their vehicles with the motor running while taking a federally mandated rest break. Lawmakers allowed this exemption to expire, so now local governments may crack down to enforce idling restrictions. Truck drivers are no longer allowed to idle during their rest periods. In addition, local governments that enforce idling restrictions will sign a memorandum from the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality that limits idling to five minutes.

Crackdown on illegal alien trafficking. Truck drivers who use any motor vehicle to commit an offense that involves transporting, concealing or harboring an alien will be disqualified from operating a commercial vehicle for life. The restriction used to be one year, but the new laws changed that.

Crackdown on traffic violations. Truck drivers convicted of any ordinance violation or motor vehicle traffic law violation must notify their employers and the state of Texas within SEVEN days.

Physical address verification. If a truck driver wants their CDL (commercial drivers’ license) delivered to a post office box, they must provide the Department of Public Safety with documentation that verifies the physical address where they live.
